In presenting to the public the first edition of the Connecticut 
River Business Directory, the Publisher would express his hope 
and belief that the information which the work embodies, will 
meet their approval, and subserve their interests. 

Extra efforts have been made in compiling the work to render 
it as complete and reliable as is compatible with the unavoidable 
defects accompanying such an undertaking, and of a character 
that will enhance the business interests of the localities to which 
it is confined, by pointing out their great models of industrial 
enterprise. 



INTRODUCTION. 

The Connecticut Riyer Valley. 



^ >« ♦ «» » 



The rank that New England occupies in the Union, the influ- 
ence her institutions have, and are exerting upon the civiHzation 
of the present century, are duly appreciated by all intelligent 
men. Now if any one will scan the map of New England, and trace 
the course of the Connecticut from its source to its mouth, care- 
fully considering its ramifications — the small tributaries fhat 
flow into it — the amount of water-power they furnish, and the 
business they thus sustain, he will see that the valley of the Con- 
necticut, the main artery of New England trade and enterprise, 
occupies no very insignificant place in the scale of forces that 
help to make New England what it is. A brief history of the 
settlement and the progress of this valley, cannot fail to make an 
interesting and appropriate introduction to this volume. The 
Aborigines who inhabited this valley, hunted in the forests tliat 
skirted its banks, and caught fish out of its prolific waters, called 
it the Quonchtacut. It was not known to any civilized people 
until some years after the English and Dutch, the original set- 
tlers of the country, had established themselves at Plymouth and 
New Netherlands. 

In 1631 Wahquimacut, a sachem whose people lived upon the 
river, made a journey to Plymouth and Boston, and earnestly so- 
licited the Governors of each of the Colonies established there, 
to send men to make settlements upon the Connecticut river. 
He referred particularly to the exceeding fruitfulness of the 
country, and promised the English, if they would make a settle- 
ment there, that he " would supply them with corn annually, and 
give them eighty beaver skins." He suggested that two men 
might be sent in advance to view the country; and had this in- 
vitation been accepted it might have prevented the claim of the 



CONNECTICUT EIVER 



Dutch from New Netherlands, who subsequently came up the 
river and built a fort at Hartford, at a place now called Dutch 
Point. Had this been done the controversy that afterward arose 
between the settlers of these separate colonies in consequence of 
the claim which the Dutch thus established, might perhaps have 
been avoided, and an extensive trade, we mean extensive for the 
time, might, no doubt, have been opened with the Indians in 
hemp, furs and deer-skins. But the Governor of Massachusetts 
paid no attention to the proposal, though he wisely treated the 
sachem courteously and generously. The Governor of Plymouth, 
however, Mr. Winslow, judged the subject to be worthy of more 
attention, and he accordingly, soon after, went to Connecticut 
" and discovered the river and the adjacent parts." The Com- 
missioners of the United Colonies, in their declaration against 
the Dutch in 1653, said: "Mr. Winslow, one of the Commission- 
ers for Plymouth, discovered the Fresh river when the Dutch 
had neither trading house nor any pretense to a foot of land 
there."* It soon after appeared that the earnestness with which 
the Indian sachem solicited the English to settle upon the river, 
originated in the distressed state of the river Indians, who were 
being overpowered by the Pequots. The Indian king imagined 
that if he could persuade the English to make settlements along 
the river, they would defend him against his too powerful 
enemies. t The next year (1632,) the people of Plymouth made 
new discoveries on the river, and founded a place at Windsor, 
which was subsequently settled, though the first settled town on 
the river was Wethersfield, four miles below Hartford, which was 
visited by an exploring, party from Watertown, who erected a 
few huts in 1634-5. 

The Dutch rested their claim to the discovery of the river and 
the ownership of its lands, on the fact that the seacoast adjacent 
to its mouth, with a portion of the river itself, were first explored 
by them ; the counter claim of the English was based on a patent 
of Connecticut issued by Robert, Earl of Warwick, President of 
the Council of Plymouth, Lord Say and Seal, Lord Brooke, Sir 
Richard Saltonstall, and their associates, "embracing all that part 
of New England in America, extending in breadth 120 miles, as

the coast lietli, from the Narragansett Eiver toward Yirgmia, and 
in longitude from the Western Ocean to the North Sea," mean- 
ing thereby from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. Tlie Dutch 
retained possession of their trading house at Dutch Point for 
some time after Hartford was settled, but finally sold out to 
the English and vacated. There are many facts of historical in- 
terest relative to these first settlements, but we cannot, of course, 
notice them in detail here, and besides, they are mostly familiar 
to those acquainted with the early history of New England. 

The Connecticut has its source "in that grand ridge of moun- 
tains " which divides the waters of New England and Canada, 
and extends northeasterly to the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The 
source of its liighest branch is in about forty-five degrees and a 
half of north latitude. Where it enters New England it is ten 
rods in breadth, and in running sixty miles further it becomes 
twenty-four rods wide. The country through which it passes is 
gradually descending from north to south, and its course corres- 
ponds therewith. Its wide and deep valley separates not only 
two mountain ridges, but two solid masses of highland. The 
level of its broad bed is broken by a series of terraces. In the 
first quarter of its course it has a rapid fall of twelve hundred 
feet, this being from its source to the mouth of the Passumpsic 
Eiver, on the parallel of the White Mountains, where its surface 
is but four hundred feet above the sea, two hundred miles dis- 
tant. From that point, in eighty miles, to the long and flat bot- 
tom between Windsor and Bellows Falls, in Vermont, it descends 
only one hundred feet; thence it sinks one hundred and sixty 
feet to the plains of Deerfield ; and at Springfield, eighty miles 
above its mouth, it is but forty feet above the ocean. It runs 
with a gentle flow, as its course is, between three and four hun- 
dred miles. Its breadth through Connecticut, this portion only 
being navigable for large vessels, varies from one hundred rods 
to half a mile, and near its mouth, to a mile, and more. In the 
spring of the year high floods are common, reaching from twenty 
to twenty-five feet above low water mark, and a vast tract of coun- 
try is often inundated, as the banks of the river are generally low. 
Much of the land flooded is meadow land, which by tliis process is 
irrigated by natural means, and is thus fertilized to a considerable 
extent. One feature about these floods, or " freshets," as the river 



CONNECTICUT EIVER 



people invariably term them, is a constant changing of the channel 
in many places. Between Hartford and Middletown, localities can 
be pointed out where the bed of the river formerly was, which are 
now pasture lots or marshes. The banks continually wash away, 
and the tendency of the floods, which are frequently aggravated by 
walls of ice, is to fill up certain spots in the channel where the cur- 
rent is swift, so that dredging machines are necessarily employed 
to remove the accumulations of sand or other deposits, so that navi- 
gation may not be obstructed. 

We have said that the valley of the Connecticut separates not 
only two mountain ridges, but two solid masses of highland. 
To regard these highlands, which form so important a feature 
of New England geography, as simply two ranges of hills, 
would not be to conceive of them correctly. They are vast 
swells of land, of an average elevation of a thousand feet above 
the level of the sea, each with a width of forty or fifty miles, 
from wfiich as from a base, mountains rise in chains or iso- 
lated groups, to an altitude of several thousand feet more. In 
structure the two belts are unlike. The western system, which 
bears the general name of the Green Mountains, is composed of 
two principal chains, more or less continuous, covered, like sev- 
eral shorter ones which run along them, witli tlie forest and herb- 
age to which they owe their name. Between these a longitudinal 
valley can be traced, though with some interruption, from Con- 
necticut to Vermont. The space between these mountain 
ranges and the Connecticut, is mostly occupied by a rugged table- 
land, measuring in height from a thousand to fifteen hundred 
feet. In Massachusetts this is deeply furrowed by transverse val- 
leys, through which torrents like the Westfield and Deerfield 
Rivers descend to the Connecticut. In Vermont both heights 
and streams assume a more gentle character. From a height of 
less than a thousand feet in Connecticut, the mountains rise to 
an average of twenty-five hundred feet in Massachusetts, and 
forty-four hundred feet in Vermont and New Hampshire. In 
Connecticut the bottom of the vaUey is from five hundred to 
seven hundred feet above the level of the sea ; in southern Mas- 
sachusetts it is eight hundred feet; it rises thence two hundred 
feet to Pittsfield, and one hundred more to the foot of Greylock 
Mountain, whence it declines to the bed of the Housatonic in

one direction, and to an average height of a little more than five 
hundred feet in Vermont in the other. 

The commerce of the river is confined to that portion lying 
between Hartford and its mouth, a distance of fifty miles. Small 
craft, flat-bottomed affairs, more useful than ornamental, go as 
far as Springfield, about thirty miles above Hartford, though few 
go above Windsor Locks, an intermediate point. They carry 
freight in small quantities. The navigation of the river for prac- 
tical purposes, closes at Hartford, and to this place vessels draw- 
ing eight and nine feet of water can readily pass except in cases 
of unusual drought. A fine line of steamers connects the head 
of navigation with New York, the largest boat of the line being 
of twenty-two hundred tons burthen. A large proportion of the 
vessels engaged in river traffic, are employed in freighting stone 
from the extensive free-stone quarries at Portland, opposite Mid- 
dletown, twenty miles below Hartford, and these vessels on their 
return trips from various commercial points on the river, do a 
good business in the conveyance of miscellaneous freight. At 
Essex, Deep River, East Haddam, Higganum, Middle Haddam, 
Middletown, Portland and Hartford, there are ship-yards, from 
which many vessels for the coasting trade are yearly launched. 

This navigable portion of the river affords delightful scenery 
throughout its whole distance. It is not so bold nor so sharp in 
its outlines as the scenery of the Hudson, yet in variety and pic- 
turesqueness it is grandly superior to much that appears on that 
river, and the traveler cannot fail to enjoy the many natural 
charms that rise on every hand as he passes along the stream. 
At a point called the Straits, two miles below Middletown, a 
mountainous range is broken by the sweep of the river, and the 
banks on either side tower aloft for a distance of more than a mile, 
forming a beautiful stretch of bold river scenery ; but the general 
features of the country through which the river passes, have none 
of the bold characteristics seen at this particular point. For the 
most part, a receding valley is formed, with fine distances open- 
ing up well-cleared farms, handsome slopes through diverging 
valleys, and mountain ranges in the extreme view; though all 
along the variety is so great tliat whatever there might be of mo- 
notony, is broken in the continual production of some new scene 
" fairer than the rest." Through this fifty miles of country, 
2 



10 CONNECTICUT RIVER 

watered by the Connecticut, one can see more of a general char- 
acter of the topography of a considerable portion of the valley 
in a short time than of any other portion, because he may pass 
through it by daylight on a steamer, and obtain a view of the 
whole landscape at every turn. 

Above Hartford, to the sources of the Connecticut, there are 
many attractions of an historical nature, which the local resident 
can point out to the cosmopolitan. In colonial days, the Indians 
kept close to the river, because it afforded good grounds for 
hunting and fishing, and it was in the settlements established by 
the English along its banks, where most of the horrible deeds of 
atrocity were committed by the savage warriors. The Indian 
wars in Massachusetts, the most terrible of any, left many traces 
which are pointed to to-day, with great local interest, in all the 
country along the valley where the early settlers suifercd and 
died in their efforts to resist the deadly hatred of the red men. 
Though familiar to almost every school-boy, one story connected 
with the localities we have alluded to, may serve to show tlie 
character of some of the incidents which have been handed down 
to the present time from the days of bloody massacres. We 
quote from Stiles' History of the Judges — the Regicides — 
Goffe and Whalley: "While Goffe was secreted in Hadley, in 
1675, the Indians attacked the town while the inhabitants were 
at public worship. The people were thrown into the utmost con- 
fusion, till Goffe, entirely unknown to them, white with age, of a 
venerable and commanding aspect, and in an unusual dress, sud- 
denly presented himself among them, encouraging tlio affrighted 
inhabitants, and put himself at their head, and by his military 
skill, led them on to an immediate victory. After the dispersion 
of the enemy he instantly disappeared. The wondering inhabit- 
ants, while ignorant whence he came and where he retired, 
imagined him to be an angel sent for their deliverance." It was 
into this section of country that Philip, sachem of the Wampa- 
noags, and for a long time the terror of New England, fled from 
Rhode Island, and excited hostilities against the whites. All of 
our New England histories contain more or less graphic accounts 
of the sangviinary struggle which followed. 

The Connecticut itself, above its navigable head, waters a fer- 
tile section, through which prosperous towns are scattered, with 



BUSINESS DIRECTOEY. 11 

an abundant promise of future growth. At Holyoke there is an 
extensive water-power, owned chiefly by Connecticut capitalists, 
who made an early investment, and who have reaped already a 
considerable pecuniary harvest from it. At other points there 
are privileges on a smaller scale, but there is hardly any doubt 
that in the course of time, very much of the upper Connecticut 
will be utilized to the development of manufacturing interests. 
The natural scenery of this portion of the valley is in very many 
parts unsurpassed. In its rugged, mountainoiis features, it is 
grandly superior, and is attracting the attention of tourists more 
and more every year. 

Of the population of this fertile valley it seems superfluous to 
say that it is composed of a people distinguished for their habits 
of industry and their moral culture. Some of the finest farms 
in New England lie along the Connecticut, and upon these toil 
many of New England's sons, whose frugality enables them to 
reap from their soil abundant harvests, that give to the New 
England farmer independence and competence. The sturdy self- 
reliance, and indefatigable energy, which are pecuHar to New 
England character, are no more thoroughly marked and made a 
sterling part of the composition of communities, than through 
this flourishing valley. The people seem to draw to themselves 
the chief characteristics of the climate, being, as we may say, 
moderate, rather than excessive or hasty, standing midway be- 
tween the torrid or impulsive, and the frigid or cold-blooded 
classes to be found in other portions of our continent. 

It is, perhaps, not generally known, that within the past two or 
three years the tide of summer travel has been diverted from 
other sections, and has found its way, to a large extent, to New 
England, and particularly to the Connecticut valley. Thousands 
of delighted tourists no longer crave the salt breezes of the ocean 
strand, or seek recreation in tedious voyages across the Atlantic, 
but going up this valley, find the bracing air of New England 
more congenial to health, and the attractions of the country 
ample to supply the most feverish desire for " something new." 
Sojourning all over our territory we shall find these contented 
tourists — on quiet farms, in pleasant villages, by river and lake, 
stretching from Long Island Sound up to the highest point of 
" the Green Mountain State."

This region, to-daj, is filled with the hum of industry ; its 
population and wealth are rapidly increasing; its people are 
growing in intelligence and refinement; invention and art are 
daily adding to its stock of utilities, and to its refining and chas- 
tening influences; so that in a generation, or a century more, if 
the inhabitants are left undisturbed by those dissensions that of- 
ten destroy and blight the prospects of the happiest people, this 
valley will be unsurpassed in everything that can contribute to 
the comfort of a great people, by any other locality of equal ex- 
tent on the surface of the globe.

HARTFORD, Hartford County, Connecticut, is situated on 
the west bank of the Connecticut River, 50 miles from its mouth, 
and distant from New York, 110 miles, New Haven 36 miles, 
Springfield, Mass., 26 miles, Boston 124 miles, Montreal, Canada, 
336 miles, Providence, R. I., 90 miles, Albany 126, in Latitude 
41 deg., 45 min., 59 sec, and Longitude 4 deg., 15 min., east 
from Washington. It may not be amiss in this book to give a 
brief historical sketch of the place. In 1633, on the point of 
land now known as "Dutch Point," at the junction of the Con- 
necticut and Park rivers, the Dutch erected a Fort, which they 
named the "Home of Hope." Two years afterwards a settle- 
ment was begun by a company of settlers from Newtown, (now 
Cambridge,) Dorchester and Watertown, Mass. 

Its Indian name was " Suckiaug." The white settlers first 
called it Newtown, but in 1636 formally named it Hartford, after 
Hartford, now called Hertford, in Hertfordshire, England, and 
during this year (1635) was held the first Town Meeting. 

In 1654, by an act of the General Court of Connecticut, the 
Dutch were compelled to leave, and consequently the whole 
colony came entirely into the hands of the English. The first 
church was erected here in 1638, also a school was established 
the same year.

The first written Constitution ever formed in America, was 
here written and finished by five men, viz.: Ludlow, Haynes, 
Wolcott, Hopkins and Hooker, in the year 1639. In 1640 a 
House of Correction was established. The General Court, in the 
year 1644, ordered the establishment of an Inn, which in after 
years became historically associated with Col. Wadsworth and the 
famous " Charter," which he concealed in the liollow of an old 
oak. The tree was carefully preserved, and remained standing 
till within a few years. 

The first Printing Office here was started in the year 1764, by 
Thomas Green, who commenced the publication of the Connec- 
ticut Courant. The act of incorporating the city was performed 
in the year 1784. Eight years afterwards the Hartford Bank and 
Hartford Charitable Society were organized. 

The shipping interests of Hartford are quite large, there being 
5 Steamboats, regularly plyina; between this point and New York, 
two river steamers, two lines of steam freight packets to Albany, 
Philadelphia and Baltimore, and regular lines of packets to for- 
eign and domestic ports. Hartford is the leading Insurance city 
in the United States, there being no less than 22 companies in 
successful operation, consisting of Fire, Life, Occident, Live 
Stock, Steam Boiler, &c. Several more are chartered this sea- 
son, which will soon be actively working. Among the large 
manufactories in the city may be mentioned Colt's Patent Fire 
Arms Manufacturing Co., with a capital of $1,000,000, and own- 
ing the largest and finest shop of the kind in the country ; Sharps' 
Rifle Manufacturing Co., Cheney Brothers, Silk Manufacturers, 
Case, Lockwood & Co., Printers, Weed Sewing Machine Com- 
pany, Woodruff & Beach Iron Works, Phoenix Iron Works, Bul- 
lard & Parsons, Machinists, with many others of lesser magni- 
tude. There are 12 banks of issue in the city, with an aggre- 
gate capital of about 18,000,000, also 3 Savings Banks. The city 
has 25 churches, among which number are some of the finest 
church edifices in the country. The Park, bounded on the east, 
north and west by Park River, and containing 46 acres, is an or- 
nament to the city. Colt's Dyke, one of the greatest improve-

ments in the city, is 8,698 feet long, from 40 to 50 wide at the 
top, and cost about $80,000. This dyke encloses 123 acres of 
some of the most valuable land in the city. 

The Hartford and Wethersfield Horse Railroad extends from 
Spring Grove Cemetery through Main, State and Asylum streets 
to Wethersfield, running cars past a given point every seven 
minutes. Hartford has a complete system of water works. Among 
the many public institutions in Hartford, may be mentioned the 
Hartford Hospital, built of Portland stone, which, exclusive of 
recent additions, cost about $50,000. Also the Connecticut Re- 
treat for the Insane, situated on an elevation commanding a view 
of the city and meadow. The American Asylum for the Deaf and 
Dumb, was incorporated in the year 1816, and is the oldest insti- 
tution of its kind in the country. The Wadsworth Atheneum is 
a granite building, 100 feet in length, 80 feet in depth. This 
building is occupied by the Young Men's Institute, Watkinson 
Library and Connecticut Historical Society. The growth of 
Hartford has been very rapid, as shown by census taken at differ- 
ent times. In the year 1800 the whole number of inhabitants 
was only about 6,000. At the present time the population is es- 
timated at 45,000.

Though Hartford has been settled long, 

Two hundred years ago, 
Yet there are many points of interest 

Of which strangers do not know. 
But chief amongst them all 

Is the Hat Store kept by Bunce ; 
No one wiU ere forget it 

If they buy their goods there once. 
You'll there find Hats and Caps, 

Of every grade and style, 
And all at lowest prices' 

Which we know will make you smile. 
Gloves, Collars and Suspenders, 

They always there do keep, 



With lots of Fancy Neckties, 

And Scarfs so trim and neat. 
In fact, all sorts of things 

Which Gent's now need to wear, 
(Except Coats, Vests and Pantaloons,) 

You'll always find them there. 
For the Ladies (gentle creatures,) 

There are styles of Furs so nice. 
That when they hear the prices 

They'll buy them in a trice. 
Now all who visit Hartford, 

For pleasure or for show, 
Don't fail before you leave the town, 

In Bunce's Store to go. 



Bunce's Store is to be found at 307 laaln Street, opposite State House, and 3 doors 
below Asylum St. The latest and most tasty style of Hats and Gents' Furnishing Goods,

ADVANTAGES PRESENTED BY THIS dOMPANY. 



Secdritt is the primary consideration in Life Insurance. This Company offers the security of a 
larger capital than ant other Lifb Company in this Coontbt. 

Its ratio of assets to liabilities (the real test of solvency,) is larger than that of any other Company 
in the United States. See Annual Report of Mass. Ins. Commissioner for January, 1867. 

Its managers have had a long experience in all the departments of Life Insurance ; and the Com- 
pany is under the direction of men weU known for their inteqritt and prudent manaoembnt. 

The Company offers insurance upon the Stock Plan at the lowest rates consistent with security. 
This plan is increasingly popular. 

If the mutual system is preferred, the Company offers the security of its large capital, and when 
the premium is $50, or upwards, will accept a note for 40 per cent, if desired.

The Hartford Courant, 

(Daily and Weekly,) and tke 

DAILY EYENING PRESS. 

The Courant is the oldest newspaper of prominence in the United States, and with less 
than half-a-dozen exceptions, the oldest printed in the English language. It was founded 
in October, 1764, and has been published uninterruptedly, under the same title, ever 
since. 

THE BAIJLY COURANT, 

issued every morning except Sundays, is the 

LARGEST DAILY IN NEW ENGLAND, 

and the only one which is regularly printed in the modern metropolitan quarto form. No 
effort or expense is spared to give it the character of a first class journal. It is published 
at $8.00 a year, and has a circulation second to but one provincial Eastern daily. 

THE EVEIVINCJ PRESS, 

is issued in two editions every afternoon, and is a distinct sheet from The Courant, pos- 
sessing its own staff of writers, and containing a full resume of the news, together with a 
large variety of interesting miscellany. Its price is $7.00 yearly. 

THE CONNECTICUT COURANT, 

is a very large weekly, carefully made up of the most valuable matter appearing in the 
two dailies, and accompanied every other week by an eight paged literary supplement. 
Its circulation now approaches 10,000 copies, extending to all parts of the country, and 
making it one of the best advertising mediums in New England. Its terms are $2.50 a 
year, or to Clubs $2.00.

During the past year The Post has passed under its present management. It has 
received the highest commendations from the public and the press, and, as the fesult, it 
HAS MORE THAN DOUBLED ITS CIRCULATION. It has a larger country circulation than 
any other Hartford daily, and has made such important gains in the city, that it is now 

ONE OF THE BEST ADVERTISING MEDIUMS IN THE CITY. 

In the management of the paper no pains are spared to make it acceptable to the family 
circle. The news of the day is carefully condensed and promptly given. Miscellaneous 
departments are kept up, in which a full variety of interesting items appear. Its edito- 
rial pages keep pace with the events of the day. Foreign and domestic matters are dis- 
cussed with candor. Politically it does not follow the blind lead of any party, though 
advocating fearlessly the cause of the Union, it will always aim to cultivate amity and 
harmony on sound principles throughout the length and breadth of the land. If a truth 
is to be spoken, it will give it utterance boldly, not hesitating from motives of policy or 
expediency, till the truth itself becomes "flat, stale and unprofitable." It will seek to be 
in advance on all public questions, and will criticise men and measures independent of 
party considerations. 

THE WEEKLY POST, 

This a large sized four paged paper, issued every Thursday, and is crowded with every 
variety of interesting selected and original matter. It is the purpose of the proprietors 
to admit but a limited amount of advertising; this enables them to devote almost the 
entire space of the paper to reading matter. It contains more reading matter and is 
furnished to subscribers at a lower rate than any other paper in the State.

Montreal Canada, 310 miles, Albany 100 miles, is the second of

size of the cities in the Connnecticut Valley, and contains about 
28,000 inhabitants, which is double its population as estimated 
by the census of 1860. This rapid increase of numbers propro- 
tionately enhanced the wealth and beauty of the city as is seen 
by the large number of public buildings, business blocks, and 
tenement houses erected during the last few years, still the de- 
mand for tenements exceeds the supply. Springfield is the old- 
est town in Massachusetts, on the Connecticut River, having been 
settled in 1636, by a company from Roxbury. It is also the 
shire town of Hampden county, and was incorporated February 
20th, 1812. 

Springfield is the great Railway centre of New England, and 
it being the junction of the Western, Hartford, New Haven & 
Springfield and Conn. River Railroads. This is the terminus of 
the' Hartford and New Haven Road, which extends a distance of 
62 miles. The Conn. River Road, 50 miles in length, extending 
up the river valley, terminating in South Vernon, at the 
state line between Vermont and Massachusettss, and connects 
with the Vermont and Massachusetts Railroad from Fitchburg, 
Boston and Northern Vermont. The Western Railroad connect- 
ing at Worcester with the Boston and Worcester Railroad, passes 
west through the city and terminates at Albany, N. Y., is about 
160 miles in length. Here are located the repair shops of the 
Western and Conn. River railroads, giving employment to several 
hundred men. The extensive manufactory of the Norwalk Iron 
Works, making the Earl patent Steam Pump, is situated here. 
The United States Armory, established here in 1795, has propa- 
bly done more towards building the city than any other one cause. 
Previous to 1860, tha hands employed in the Armory did not ex- 
ceed 500, but during the war the number increased to 2,992. 
At the present time about 1000 men are employed. The num- 
ber of muskets made in the month of April, 1864, was 26,000. 
Armory square which contains a portion of the workshops, and 
the residence of the commandant, paymaster, master armorer 
and other officers, is situated on the high grounds in the eastern 
portion of the city. A number of the armory buildings, known 
as the water shops, are situated one mile south of armory square 
where is done the heavy work of rolling the barrels, trip ham- 
mer and drop work, &c. The armory grounds are surrounded

with an iron fence 8 feet higlj. The arsenal building, 3 stories 
high will hold 300,000 guns. The view from the tower is very 
fine and in a clear day, one can see twelve miles down the river. 

Hampden Park, inaugurated September 2wth, 1857^ was pur- 
chased and improved by the Hampden County Agricultural Soci- 
ety, for an exhibition ground, at a cost of about $32,000, is 
beautifully situated on the river bank, in the northwestern por- 
tion of the city. These grounds, containing about 60 acres, are

the other by a substantial fence. The grounds comprise a mile 
and half mile race track, graded and kept in good condition, also 
buildings for sheltering stock during Agricultural and Horse fairs.

JL HE Subscriber begs to call the attention of his former patrons, and the million others who use and 
are to use Curtain Fixtures, to his recently PERFECTED AND PATENTED PENDULUM FIXTURE. 
The original White's Pendulum Fixture, that I extensively manufactured and sold some years since, 
is a good Fixture, but the one I now offer is the NE PLUS ULTRA. The two objections to that 
Fixture were, that it was noisy and sometimes failed to hold the Curtain from running down. The 
PERFECTED is operated with but little noise, and is sure to hold the Curtain permanently in place 
at any desired height. It is neat and tasty in design, is manufactured of the best of material and in a 
thorough and workmanlike manner. It is durable and easily put up for use. A moment's inspection 
will make its superiority apparent to every observer.

EASTHAMPTON, MASS., is a pleasant and thriving town, 
"with a population of about 3000, beautifully situated in the valley, 
just north of and at the foot of Mt. Tom, four and one-half miles 
south-west of Northampton, and is reached by cars on the New 
Haven and Northamption Eailway, which passes through this 
town. 

Easthampton is noted for its large manufactories of Buttons, 
Vulcanized Rubber, Elastic Suspenders, Rubber Thread and 
Cotton Yarns, &c., <fec. 

The prosperity of Easthampton, to a large extent, is due to the 
enterprise a*nd energy of Hon. Samuel Williston, who is largely 
interested in several large manufactories. 

Williston Seminary, which is located here, was founded by the 
munificence of Hon. Samuel Williston. It was first opened for 
the reception of pupils in Dec, 1841, and has since enjoyed un- 
interupted prosperity. Additions have been made from time to 
time by the founder, to its buildings, apparatus and funds, until 



284 CONNECTICUT RIVER 



the whole amount of donations, including $50,000 for the new 
Dormitory recently completed, has reached the sum of 1225,000.

NOETHAMPTON, MASS., The shire town of Hampshire 
County, on the west bank of the Connecticut River, 18 miles 
above Springfield, and 76 miles north of New Haven. It is 
located on the rising ground \ mile west of the river, giving a 
complete view of Mts. Holyoke and Tom and Hadley Meadows. 
It is irregularly laid out ; the winding avenues and crooked 
streets lined with Elms and Maples, giving it an inviting and pic- 
turesque appearance, and making it one of the pleasantest towns 
in the river valley. 

The first settlers numbering 21 persons, came from Springfield 
and Windsor, and located here in 1654. Town officers were 
chosen in 1655, though there is no record of any act of incorpo- 
ration. The town is supposed to have been named after North- 
ampton in England, though that is somewhat doubtful. 

The first church was erected in 1655, it was 26 feet long by 
18 wide, built of sawed timber, and cost 14 pounds sterling. 
At present there are six Protestant societies and one Roman 
Catholic. Northampton has long been noted for the excellence 
of its Public Schools, and at the present time contains several 
large and commodious school buildings, well supplied with com- 
petent teachers in all departments. 

Its stores are largo and numerous and well filled with large 
stocks of seasonable goods, and its business men arc alive to the 
wants of the public, many of them having had long years of ex- 



292 CONNECTICUT RIVER 

perience in this place. There are three good Hotels here, well 
kept by live Landlords, who study to provide for the comfort and 
convenience of their guests. The travelling public and all those 
who wish to find a pleasant summer resort are recommended to 
try the Round Hill Hotel and Water Cure, or the "Warner House, 
Main Street. 

The Florence Sewing Machines which are so extensively used 
the world over, are manufactured in the beautiful village of 
Florence in this township. Here are employed several hundred 
hands in making what is acknowledged to be the best Sewing 
Machine now in use. The machine makes four distinct stitches, 
Lock, Knot, Double Lock, and Double Knot, either of which are 
much stronger, more durable and elastic than that made by many 
other machines. It has become so popular that it has been 
nearly impossible to fill the large orders for it.

THE PAKTIAI.I.Y INSANE, 
OMUOT-EATEKS AND SXIMUI^tlS-TAKEKS, 

The unhappy sufferers dependent upon such means of keeping up their spirits and 
strength, or forwarding off mental or physical pain or oppression, who desire to break 
up habits so ruinous to health and mental well-being, will do so with comparative ease 
under the vitalizing and health-sustaining effects of Motorpathy, mountain air, and cold 
and hot baths. 

TO INVAIilB GENTIiEMEN. 

The Motorpathic Treatment, a system of satuminating vitalization, aided in particular 
cases by a few celebrated vegetable alteratives and a discriminating use of medicated 
hot and cold baths, speedily removes most diseases. This treatment is of especial merit 
in breaking up those insidious ar d dangerous diseases dependent upon impurities of the 
blood, and of scrofula in the system. In the cure of nervousness, sleeplessness, debilitat- 
ing dreams, loss of memory, dyspepsia, bronchitis, liver complaint, rheumatism and gout, 
its success is unparalleled. 

TO PHYSICIANS AND liABIES. 

Dr. Halsted, in the course of thirty years practice, has been able to discover the adap- 
tation of certain chemical agents, which act in harmony with the natual functions of 
special organs, remedying their diseased condition, and, motorphatically used, vitalizing 
them into healthy and vigorous action ; thereby removing sterility, curing prolapsus utert 
and other functional derangements, with ease and certainity, and without using any of the 
appliances of the day. This Motorpathic treatment restores the whole system to pristine 
health and vigor. These facts are indisputable. Ladies and physicians without number 
can be referred to who will vouch for their correctness. The Profession can have all the 
evidence they desire.

FLORENCE SEWING [MACHINE CO., 

MANUFACTUKEKS OF THE CELEBRATED 

REVERSIBLE FEED 

SEWIIfi UCHINES. 



The following are some of the advantages possessed by the Florence 
over other Machines : 

The feed may be reversed at any point desired without stopping the 
Machine. 

It sews light and heavy fabrics with equal facility. 

The work will run either to the right or left. It runs quietly and sews 
rapidly. It has no springs to get out of order. It has the most practical 
hemmer in use. It turns wide and narrow hems, and v/iW fell heautifuUy. 

There is no danger of oiling dresses, the entire machinery being on the 
top of the table. 

The needle is more readily adjusted than in any other machine. There 
is no diflSculty experienced in sewing across thick seams. It is adapted 
to a larger range of work than any other. 

It has a self adjusting shuttle tension. The amount of tension always 
being in exact proportion to the size of the bobbin. 

The taking up of the slack thread is not performed by the irregular 
contraction of a wire coil, or uncertain operation of wire levers. The 
precision and accuracy with which the Florence draws the thread into the 
cloth, is unapproached in any Sewing Machine hitherto offered in the 
market. 

Read what is said of it by some who have thoroughly tested its quali- 
ties.

Derry, N. H., May 30th, '67. 
Florence Sewing Machine Co. 

Two years ago I purchased a Florence Sewing Machine for the use 
of my family. It has never been out of order since, and works to our 
perfect satisfaction. I have examined many others, and think this prefer- 
able to any I have ever seen. I should not be willing to exchange it for 
any other Machine that I have ever examined. 

Yours, &c., 

G. C. BARTLETT. 



Oswego, New York, June 7th, '67. 
Florence Sewing Machine Co. 

We have for some months past been using one of your Machines 
with entire satisfaction, having previously used two different kinds. We 
have thoroughly tested it on various kinds of Cotton, Silk and other 
fabrics, and we believe that for ease and accuracy of motion, simplicity of 
construction, for variety, strength and excellence of the stitch, it has no 
superior, and probably combines more desirable qualities than any other 
Machine. 

E. W. WARNER. 



Lancaster, Ohio, June 1st, '67. 
Agent Florence Sewing Machine Co. 

I have been using a Florence Machine in my family for more than 
four years, and am better pleased with it every day. It gives no trouble, 
never gets out of order, is simple in construction and easily managed.

PATENTED DECEMBER 20, 1864. 

Here is an article that justly claims tlie attention of every man ■who has hay to make- 
The Kake being in front of the Wheel, is within sight of the driver, and he can manage 
it at pleasure to suit the uneven surface of the ground. No other Eake can have any such 
contrivance. 

The driver on this Kake has the advantage of -working it with his feet or hands, as he 
may choose. It is so simple and so securely made that it is not liable to get out of ojder; 
and" the low price at which it is sold will enable every farmer to buy it. Try one, by 
all means. 

REFERENCE TO EVERY PERSON WHO HAS USED THIS RAKE.

Are no longer a novelty, and the high estimate entertained of their very 
great merit over those made of iron, by all who have used them, together 
with the rapidity with which they are now coming into general use, 
obviates all occasion for any recommendations. 

Their decided advantages, especially when considered in a SANI- 
TARr, ECONOMICAL and ORNAMENTAL point of view, are facts 
too well established to admit of question ; and are rapidly securing the 
public appreciation. 

The company are manufacturing for the present season 8,000 Stoves, 
embracing a 

which for elegance of design and perfection of finish, as well as in point 
of utility, excel any Stoves yet put upon the market. 

To those familiar with the different qualities of Soapstone, it will be 
unnecessary to say that the Francestown quarry furnishes the only stone 
susceptible of a high degree of polish, or to speak of its superiority as a 
fire stone.

T^ 



"'HIS long-established and popular Machine has re- 
cently been re-modeled, enlarged, improved in many 
respects, and as at present constructed has no superior 
as a first-class instrument for family sewing or general 
manufacturing, either in cloth or leather, and is now- 
offered to the public on terms more liberal than hereto- 
fore. 

It has been the inventor's aim to pioduce a single 
machine so simple in its mechanism as to come within 
the comprehension of every one, and at the same time 
being so delicate in its operation as to perform perfectly 
on the lightest fabrics ; still having strength suflScient 
for making any or every garment worn by male or fe- 
male, and that he has succeeded to the fullest extent is 
amply testified to in the rapidly increasing sales and 
popularity of the Machine wherever introduced. It uses 
a short, straight and shank needle, with direct perpendicular action— has a large shuttle holding abundant 
thread— makes the Elastic Lock-Stitch, alike on both sides— uses a strong tension and draws up a tight seam 
without breaking threads— has an adjustable head to prevent the missing of stitches— has a needle guard to 
prevent the breaking of needles— has the four motion drop feed, or the wheel feed, at the option of the pur- 
chaser runs rapid, light and smooth — in fact it possesses every requisite for a first-class Machine, and pur- 
chasers can be assured of its giving entire satisfaction in every department of application. 

Agents wanted throughout the United States, and to whom unusually liberal inducements will be offered. 
All agents can be supplied direct from this offi e. Send for Circular, and address,

Elliptic Hook. ' 



!)HE improved Elliptic Sewing Machine, (formerly known as the Sloat Elliptic,) is 

now owned by one of the strongest companies in the United States, with a capital 

lepgi of ONE MILLION dollars, which, employing the finest machinery in the world in 

its manufacture, and owning the latest patented improvements, confidently presents the 

Elliptic as incomparably the most perfect family sewing machine ever made. 

Believing that a thorough investigation (which we particularly desire) can not fail 
to satisfy every one of the entire truthfulness of our assertions, and of the preeminent 
superiority of our machine, we cordially invite all who may wish to see a Perfect Family 
Sewing Machine, (whether desiring to purchase or not,) to call at our establishment in 
this city, or at any of our agencies throughout the country, and examine it for themselves. 

The Elliptic Machine, (which is the strongest and most durable in use,) while emi- 
nently adapted to the wants of the dress-maker, seamstress, tailor, or manufacturer of 
shirts, collars, mantillas, cloaks, corsets, clothing, ladies' gaiters, linen and silk goods, etc., 
etc., (for all of which purposes it is unequaled, performing with ease and perfection the 
work of a dozen hand-sewers, or almost any other two machines,) is incomparably supe- 
rior to all others for the use of the family, and now stands "jo«r excellence," and by the 
common consent of all who have seen it, as the great Family Sewing Machine of the age, 
having established itself, wherever adopted, as the great and exclusive favorite, especially 
with the ladies, to whose invariable recommendations the great success of the machine, as 
a family machine, is in a great measure due. 

» •mmm' « 

PERFECTION OF MECHANISM. 

The following is a condensed synopsis of the chief desiderata which, combined only
